Cool tool
One really cool tool that's likely to slip your attention is the fabric cutter which essentially looks like a pizza cutter (a pizza cutter would probably work just as well). The roundness of the blade makes for really easy straight cuts. In addition, it's absolutely great for scoring plastic (cutting it enough so that it will snap apart) and will cut through the really thin sheet stryrofoam without much difficulty. Otherwise, you have to score plastic with a razor (pretty hazardous) or cut the styrofoam with a hot knife (hard to cut a straight line). It's a $.99 solution to both of these problems.

Do you have a link for this tool? Sounds pretty handy.
Here's one: http://www.allbrands.com/products/abp02934-0132.html but you can probably pick one up at any fabric store or Michaels for a lot less. I got mine at a dollar store, so that should tell you there are any number of varieties. Honestly, its pretty much just a rotary pizza cutter that's been sharpened a bit.
